A dodgy first 25 minutes for Chong. We shall see if he can pull it together from here on out.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.
Chong is painfully average
Laird reminds me of Max Aarons and that isn't a positive.
That sounds ridiculous when it's written out but yeah he may well be for the time being
HAHA, CR7 the playmarker!
The Vallecano LB saved us the pain of watching Chong waste another attack
Erikson playing like he's trying to take Bruno's job
Chong getting butchered in this thread
Chill out mate, it was just a joke
That is what I noticed too, this is the first ETH game where I am not seeing much pressing up top.
Ronaldo has been good
Vallocano fans fighting in the away end wtf its a friendly
And on the field. Utter rubbish.
Away fans misbehaving
In a lot of the preseason games our fullbacks have often been tucked in regularly.
What is it with Southern Europe and flares? It only stops your own fans from being able to see properly.
This really is a cup final for Vallecano.
Rightfully so. Hes played absolutely garbage so far.
Just wanted to ask. Looks lovely?
VDB and Eriksen forming a nice partnership in midfield
Good to play against a team up for it.
I bet we will be devastated once he founds out about it.
Ronaldos passing has looked very good
Ya I like a lot of what I've seen but I noticed that too. When their defence has the ball our front 3 isn't doing anything to dispossess them
Donny is having a good half, much more visible, won the ball a few times and getting on the ball more regularly.
This is Caf, you are not allowed to say anything remotely nice about VDB, expect a ban soon.
Ronnie basically playing the Portuguese #10 role today
Rayo fans making their own entertainment
Close by Erik's son
van de Beek's been good.
Ohh thought that was in

Thought that was going in for a second! Two very powerful shots by Chong and Eriksen.
Thought that was in!
Nearly Ronnie! Ronaldo's playing very well. I'm encouraged. Maybe means he is staying afterall
Proper close from Eriksen.
Ronaldo dropping deep and playing as the playmaker. Expecting us to play Bruno as false #9 a lot in the big games in this 4-3-3/4-4-2 diamond hybrid.
Is the Rayo shirt a high voltage sign?
Great to watch us actually playing what looks like football at long last. Really enjoying it. Whether we win owt this year is a bit of a long shot I reckon but there’s no doubt we’ve got a proper manager now and we look a different animal already.
Ronaldo out there playing like prime Kane.
We're not controlling the game through midfield and it's been back and forth but there has been some sexy one-twos
